- Get Involved Group:
- Fed Facebook Page:
- Storytelling:
- Online survey:
This group meets every six weeks and provides opportunities for disabled people and their supporters to discuss issues around the accessibility of public services and work with public authorities to identify solutions. GIG meetings focus on specific themes which are identified in advance, but also offer an open forum where people can raise any issues they face as a disabled person when accessing public services.
The Fed has a facebook group where you can connect with other disabled people in Brighton and Hove, and have your say about public services, Fed projects and anything of interest to you. Click here to join the group.
Stories about your personal experiences as disabled people in Brighton and Hove are a fantastic resource which when shared can raise awareness as well as improving attitudes and services. Why not be creative about it too? Keep a journal, post on the forum, share photos and videos, or just send us an email.
If this is your first time on the site, please take the time to fill out our online survey about public services in Brighton and Hove. We continually record your responses and use them to identify big issues and guide our work on the project. Click here to share your views and enter our Online Survey
